The Canadian Red Cross has launched the
Philippines Typhoon Rai (Odette) Appeal to help people impacted by the devastating storm that made landfall in the region on December 16, 2021. Locally known as Odette, Typhoon Rai has caused severe flooding and landslides and displaced hundreds of thousands of people.
Donations to the Canadian Red Cross will be used for immediate and ongoing relief efforts, long-term recovery, resiliency, and preparedness for future events in the Philippines and in and around impacted regions, including surrounding countries. These activities and the impacted areas may evolve based on emerging needs and subsequent disasters.

Philippines Typhoon Rai (Odette) Appeal can do so online at
